The name my mother was told was Don Llueva, which over time change to DunLeavy. Over the years in Ireland the family settle in Longford, were my grandmother was born. Her name was Ann Marie DonLeavy daughter of Owen DonLeavy and Brigit Farrell, e believe Brigit Farrell was born in 1842 in Longford and passed away in 1905 in Brooklyn, NY, USA,</p>
